Those who are criticizing about breakdancing being a sport in the Olympics, have you try to do some of those moves? It is extremely difficult and it takes great strength, agility, and power to excel in it. Even though I might not be very good at it I can play soccer, basketball, tennis, box, swim, etc., but I could not do those difficult breakdancing moves even if my life depends on it. Most of us would break our arms and necks if we try those moves.

Love that they're calling it the true name of "breaking"! 💯💯
-
BEAT STREET the movie🔥❤
-
So much agility, creativity required, happy to hear this and excited to watch it! ❤
-
It’s interesting that the individuals judging were not born when we were breaking. Lol
-
Cool that breaking has become an Olympic sport!
-
are any other dance styles included as olympic sport? or is this unusual?
-
Removing boxing and baseball, and putting in dancing

I am 51 years old and the only reason I will be watching the Olympics is because of breakdancing. People who criticize about breakdancing being a sport and that it should not be in the Olympics has zero clues about how difficult breakdancing is and the incredible strength, agility, and power it takes to excel in it.

No black Americans is crazy work
-
Breakdancing requires no Equipment to practice or compete...thats invaluable.

super talented and super creative, but not a sport
-
This is awesome to see. It was so fun to watch back in the day. I don't remember Beat Street. I watched Breakin and Breakin 2 Electric Bugaloo at the theater. Will definitely be watching this.

The NEXT "sport" will be chinese checkers!
-
Not really a sport. It’s a dance competition which is judged by subjective standards. That said, it’s no more embarrassing than ice dancing as an olympic event.

A desperate attempt to jazz up a centuries-old event.. Kids will still skip it..😂.. And regulars will change the channel..😅.. I wanna see the judges and how they measure who has the better moves.. I'll check it out.
